We now track all pending RPC passthrough calls, and terminate them with an
error if the plugin dies.
Changelog-Fixed: JSON-RPC: Pending RPC method calls are now terminated if the handling plugin exits prematurely.
ChangeLog-Added: New `getsharedsecret` command, which lets you compute a shared secret with this node knowing only a public point. This implements the BOLT standard of hashing the ECDH point, and is incompatible with ECIES.
Most is taken from lightningd/bitcoind and adapted. This currently
exposes 5 commands:
- `getchaininfo`, currently called at startup to check the network and
whether we are on IBD.
- `getrawblockbyheight`, which basically does the `getblockhash` +
`getblock` trick.
- `getfeerate`
- `sendrawtransaction`
- `getutxout`, used to gather infos about an output and currently used by
`getfilteredblock` in `lightningd/bitcoind`.
Before this patch we used `int` for error codes. The problem with
`int` is that we try to pass it to/from wire and the size of `int` is
not defined by the standard. So a sender with 4-byte `int` would write
4 bytes to the wire and a receiver with 2-byte `int` (for example) would
read just 2 bytes from the wire.
To resolve this:
* Introduce an error code type with a known size:
`typedef s32 errcode_t`.
* Change all error code macros to constants of type `errcode_t`.
Constants also play better with gdb - it would visualize the name of
the constant instead of the numeric value.
* Change all functions that take error codes to take the new type
`errcode_t` instead of `int`.
* Introduce towire / fromwire functions to send / receive the newly added
type `errcode_t` and use it instead of `towire_int()`.
In addition:
* Remove the now unneeded `towire_int()`.
* Replace a hardcoded error code `-2` with a new constant
`INVOICE_EXPIRED_DURING_WAIT` (903).
Changelog-Changed: The waitinvoice command would now return error code 903 to designate that the invoice expired during wait, instead of the previous -2
Fixes: #3192
Changelog-Added: `waitanyinvoice` now supports a `timeout` parameter, which when set will cause the command to fail when the timeout is reached; can set this to 0 to fail immediately if no new invoice has been paid yet.
Add "peer not connected" and "unknown peer" as error codes, so that
users can check against numeric error codes instead of textual error
messages.
Will ease https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues/3366
Changelog-None
This is probably worth preventing.
1. Our depth estimate would be inaccurate possibly leading to us
timing out too early.
2. If we're not up-to-date our onchain funds are unknown.
3. We wouldn't be able to send or receive HTLCs until we're synced anyway.

- result fundchannel command now depends on successful or failed broadcast of the funding tx
- failure returns error code FUNDING_BROADCAST_FAIL
- don't fail the channel when broadcast failed, but keep in CHANNELD_AWAITING_LOCKIN
- after fixing the initial broadcast failure, the user could manually rebroadcast the tx and
keep the channel
openingd/opening_funder_finished:
- broadcast_tx callback function now handles both success and failure
jsonrpc: added error code FUNDING_BROADCAST_FAIL
manpage: added error code returned by fundchannel command
This makes the user more aware of broadcast failure, so it hopefully doesn't
try to broadcast new tx's that depend on its change_outputs. Some users have reported (see
issue #2171) a whole sequence of fundings failing, because each funding was using the change
output of the previous one, which would not confirm.
json_escaped.[ch], param.[ch] and jsonrpc_errors.h move from lightningd/
to common/. Tests moved too.
We add a new 'common/json_tok.[ch]' for the common parameter parsing
routines which a plugin might want, taking them out of
lightningd/json.c (which now only contains the lightningd-specific
ones).
The rest is mainly fixing up includes.
